Description:

Tom is a college drop-out making his way around Canada selling "grass" and preying upon homosexuals. Upon meeting a pretty librarian named Vicky, he gets her high on marijuana and then makes love to both her and her roomate. Once Vicky has been converted to his way of life, she joins him in exploiting anyone and everyone in pursuit of pleasure. When money is low they resort to prostitution and petty theft. As their relationship grows, Vicky becomes increasingly more aggressive, while Tom, having fallen in love with Vicky, becomes more and more passive. When one of Vicky's "Charlies" invites her on a trip to the Laurentians she takes Tom along for kicks. After goading the man until he is half crazy with impotent rage the couple murder him and prop him against a tree while they make love in a nearby field. Eventually, Vicky tires of Tom and ditches him to look for a more exciting life for herself somewhere else. <74mn 30s>
